Sony today released more information about pre-order incentives for the upcoming Insomniac produced game Resistance 3. The pre-order incentives vary from a wearable necklace, to the typical multiplayer perks. No word yet if these will be available outside the United States.
Here are the pre-order incentives by company, as posted by the PlayStation Blog.
GameStop
Joseph Capelli wears a necklace of Chimeran teeth during Resistance 3. Show that you are the resistance with this authentic replica that symbolizes the battle against the Chimera.
Pre-ordering at GameStop grants access to a unique multiplayer booster, which allows you to start Resistance 3 multiplayer at Level 5. This also offers immediate flexibility and character customization options from the moment you begin the online competitive game.
Wal-Mart
Show off your Resistance 3 fandom in competitive online play with this pre-order package that offers a special set of five custom name titles, including Sentinel. The Sentinels are an elite group of soldiers in Resistance, and the only way to obtain these exclusive multiplayer PSN tags is by pre-ordering at Wal-Mart.
Amazon
The No. 60 Air Fuel Grenade has been issued for combating Chimera in tight spaces commonly found in urban conflicts. The grenade will adhere to almost any surface, biological or otherwise, and deploy a cloud of flammable vapor. Once released, the cloud ignites, creating a massive explosion.
This fan favorite grenade makes a special return to the single-player campaign of Resistance 3 – but only for those who pre-order from Amazon.
Best Buy
Lt. Nathan Hale skipped his viral inhibitor treatments in the final hours of Resistance 2 in order to continue the fight against the Chimera. Play as him in his final hours with this special multiplayer skin, letting you bring Hale to the battlefields of Resistance 3.
Love a good victory dance after a win? Show off your skills by using a special Best Buy exclusive ability in multiplayer to taunt your fallen enemies. Only the most skilled players can forsake another ability in order to taunt their enemies.
Canada and other U.S. retailers
The backbone of the US effort against the Chimera during the war, Black Ops troops were a common site at SRPA facilities and during special operations. Mostly killed and destroyed, this special multiplayer skin lets you return as one of the most mysterious soldiers from R:FOM and R2.
Resistance 3, the latest installment of the post-apocalyptic franchise from Insomniac Games, invades North American store shelves on September 6th, 2011.

It’s something different. Typical first person shooter but with crazy awesome weapons.

Hard to choose honestly.
But I think if I could I’d get the GameStop pre-order bonus, 5 levels on multiplayer is better than anything because I usually hate leveling my mp character.

I enjoyed the story for both, and play through them co-op with my son, so it was def great fun. Never got into the MP with them tho.

These are very nice and all, but this is totally unfair that Europe gets a Survivor Edition, in which they receive everything. I would be the guy who stands out and pays $150 for that Edition. Like for real. We have been demanding it on Insomniacs Forums for a long time. And we get this, a $60 game. and 5 different places where we should go and buy the game for $60 just to get every bonus. Great Idea SONY, money hog.

If I buy the Survivor Edition from Europe, most likely the UK, will I be able to run the game on my PS3, here in the US? Cuz in the end if only Europe gets the collectors editions, then I am going to get it from online store or something.
